Perks for the Parents
A highly walkable Provencal home, ideal for smaller families, with a private pool and beautiful gardens. It sleeps 6. This is a great property for a hassle-free vacation, with the beautiful village of Eygalières, just a few minutes away on foot so the family can stroll to collect pastries or baked goods each morning. The village also has an ice cream parlor, weekly food markets and a few restaurants, so you won’t have to go far for easy family meals.
Why Kids Love it
This is a great house for kids, with a step-in pool and a playground nearby, as well as air conditioning throughout to keep younger children cool during the day. Older kids and teens will also appreciate the location - independent children can explore the village alone if they need their own space. For family days out, visit the area’s famous Zoo (45 minutes’ drive) or take a trip to Saint Remy de Provence (15 minutes) for carousel rides, and to the Camargue (45 minutes) to see white horses and flamingoes.
Things to Know
Minimum stay: 7 nights, with bookings running from Saturday to Saturday in peak season. Tourist tax to be paid directly to the host on arrival (approx 5.76€pppn). Safety notes: the swimming pool is secured by a roller shutter. There is parking available for 3 cars. The property is managed by an agency in France who act as a concierge during your stay: they can advise places to go, local restaurants to try, shopping deliveries, at-home treatments, arrange housekeeping, babysitting, chef services, excursions or equipment rental. All the bedrooms have air conditioning. Sorry - no pets.
About the Location
The house is located in Eygalières, in Provence. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to the village for bakeries, restaurants and an authentic French market on Friday. It’s 15 minutes’ drive to St Rémy and 1 hour from Aix-en-Provence. There are many hiking trails around the village, as well as the beautiful Domaine de la Vallongue vineyard (5 minutes’ drive). This picturesque region is known for its pretty gardens, historic chapels, the archaeological site of Glanum, and the creeks of Marseille (50 minutes). It’s half an hour from Avignon airport; 1 hour from Marseille.
Accommodation Details
The villa has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set over 2 floors. The villa consists of a ground floor with a double living room, a fully equipped kitchen as well as a bedroom with a private bathroom, separate toilet and a laundry room. Upstairs, you will find 2 beautiful bedrooms as well as a shared bathroom and a separate toilet. Outside, the swimming pool (10 x 5) is surrounded by magnificent raised gardens.
Style Notes
Village charm. This pretty home has all the charm of a grand Provencal villa, together with the quirkiness of a more compact village abode. Modern, chic bathrooms and a contemporary kitchen add edge to the traditional historic style, and the hosts have chosen warm colors to create a relaxing and laid-back environment. We love the concrete-style kitchen, the exposed beams in the living area and the beautifully lush green gardens.
